BigJ's NEWCORE 1.1r (RELOADED!) ROM updated: 6-16-07

[dho97]

I found one problem:

Start->Programs and scroll down to the end of window, the system lock up and does not response any command. Need to do a soft reset to recovery. This is the first time I see this problem and I do not know if this only happen on my 6700. Any way I can avoid this lock up problem? Thanks.

Please follow J's instructions:

- Please state wich CARRIER ROM you are using (sprint/verizon/alltel/generic)

- Do you have any other programs on the handset that are NOT part of the ROM?

I am running a Verizon ROM and can not reproduce your issue

I just want to clarify what the bluetooth issues are, and make sure I am not complaining about something that cant be fixed. When I pickup a call with my Motorola HS850, as my girlfriend says, it sounds like I am crumbling up a paper bag. I haven't had a dropped call yet mainly because the person on the other end complains so I just turn the thing off. I am still having these issues.

Consequently, does my headset just suck? Is there a working headset that DOES work well with ppc6700?

I have Sprint and the most current rom from JBabey.

Thanks for all of the effort on this rom, it does make all the difference on this phone.

I have not flashed this ROM and am still on 1.6u of BigJs since I am getting ready to go out the country for a couple weeks and want it stabilized for awhile. I have used most of BigJs ROM since 9.5 version and have never had a any BT problems except PAN which is still not working for me.

I use the Planronics 510 BT headset and highly recommend it. It tried many of the others including the one you are using and they were all crap with the 6700. I get over 95% reliability voice dailing with over 1200 contracts on this ROM. I also use this headset with VOIP client software to make Wifi calls with the 6700. The quality is better than cellphone.

Thanks。 I used sprint rom. Yes, you are right, the rom itself is fine. The problem was caused by skype beta software which caused the system to lock up. I will try to download newer version to see if I still have problem.

I hope this is the right topic to be posting this question under.
I downloaded Bigj's kitchen and also the Unified kitchen and read all the instructions and have not been able to figure out something that I would like to do.
There are OEMs in the Unified that i want to use and OEMs in Js that I want to use. Is there an easy way to make all the OEMs from both show up in the BuildOS?

Just grab them out of my kitchens /OEM/ folder and put them into the other kitchens, it will show up, i created seperate option.xml files for every single OEM in there.

- IM+ Today plugin, ya same issue here. The webpage states that 4..36 fixes the today-screen plugin, but its not working for me. Ill keep my eye on their forums and see if i cant get it fixed.

- Bluetooth pretty much sucks all around on this handset. The best ones I have found to work great are the plantronics headsets. They have the best clarity, good battery life, and good range. Aside from that, motorola makes a tiny one that sticks right into your ear that my co-worker uses and my assistant manager uses the old skool sony bt608.

all the rest that we sell (samsungs/sprintbranded/etc.) all pretty much suck. sorry, thats just life for bluetooth.


Thanks so much for the tips on the phone number connection. Sprint does not need a password so i didnt assume that vz did. Well sprint DOES but its sent automatically with no need to edit it in.

Does anyone reading this know of a way I can QUERY that information and have it auto-put it in there.... or wich cab file SPECIFICALLY in your ext.rom puts that in? If i knew the cab i have a dirty little trick i can do on the next build to get that to go in an OEM package.

+++++++++++++++

Thanks for the feedback, it looks good so far and that makes me happy!

J it is beyond good. You absolutely nailed it. I've been running it for a day now, not a single hiccup. It runs smoothly, and everything works like a charm. Well done, congratulations

I'm rather new to the board. I'm going to install BigJ's latest rom. Do I also need to install a kitchen? Does the latest rom include support for bluetooth keyboards? I want to continue to use Slingbox and the ppc6700 as a wireless usb modem. Any problem doing this with the latest rom? Also, how would I revert to my original rom if I had to? Thanks.
